Hi,
a 6ya Repairman can help you resolve that issue over the phone in a minute or two.
Best thing about this new service is that you are never placed on hold and get to talk to real repair professionals here in the US. click here to Talk to a Repairman (only for users in the US for now) and get all the help you need. Goodluck!

can you look in one of the holes in the back and see if the inside glows orange after you turn it on? If it doesn't could be the igniter, if it does glow orange, clicks or clacks, and glows again 20-30 seconds later, click/clack and nothing, it's probably the gas valve. I'm going through the same thing with a new one and they had to order the valve and a new controller board in case it is bad too. If you are handy, have an electronic tester, and have the patience, go to http://136.166.4.200/contents/Laundry/DLG3788.htm for the service manual and disassembly instructions and see if you want to tackle the test flow for no heat. I just stumbled on the site.

This can obviously be several things, but I would first check the small safety thermostat. On the gas models, there is a small pin sticking out of it which can be pushed back in to reset it. It is located on the heater housing and is only about the size of a dime, with two wires on it. This will trip out easily if your vent was not clean, or is long or restricted in some ways (like using flex ducting)
If you need more help getting to it, let me know and I'll give you more instructions.

If machine runs only in low heath cycles, then there is a
problem with timer control, low heath selector, or heating assembly
(cycling thermostat).

The first thing to do would be locating
the tech sheet. The sheet is tucked inside an envelope located inside
the control panel assembly. In the tech sheet you will find instructions
to run a diagnostic cycle. The diagnostic cycle will return an error
code that will help locating the fault.

With different Frigidaire
Affinity dryers you need to press and hold Pause Cancel and SELECT for
about ten seconds, then leave, put selector to NORMAL, temperature
selector to HIGH HEAT and press START to run the diagnostic cycle. The
procedure for this specific model is described in the tech sheet.
